"This beach has a picturesque scenery, but don't let it fool you. It's not as impressive as it appears. The lack of crowds may seem like a blessing, but it's more likely due to the mediocre conditions. If you're hoping for some thrilling waves, you'll be disappointed. The water is lukewarm at best, making it a decent spot for a leisurely dip."

"The beach appears stunning from afar but unfortunately, it is overwhelmed with litter. It would be a breathtaking sight if the debris was removed. We arrived on foot without any equipment to dispose of the garbage, hence we were unable to clean it up. Despite the trash, the beach is massive and the unsoiled sand is truly impressive."
